Proton X70

[^pomen_GTR^]

My colleague bought one. His previous car was a Myvi 1.3L. He says the X70 is sluggish, not very responsive. I sat in the car for a full 7 seconds, the ingress/egress is very nice. The top spec brown leather is also quite nice. But I was only there for 7 seconds.

ask him to drive the old mini cooper to be more responsive and nimble than the myvi... lol

I drove back my Chery SUV and if felt so much more nimble and with manual AT over my Bigger forester with CVT......lol

No..no..no...as we grow older we mistaken body roll with nimbleness...hahahah.

The handling wasn't as bad as I expected. I test drove the Premium one, it felt bad. I have the executive and drove it up Genting it drove well and the torque is fantastic.

But the Chery suspension is stiffer, Forester softer......lol

I drove my Chery SUV which is smaller and less power than my forester, but I feel the Chery is more nippy and agile, feels it is faster too, as the forester is huge and running CVT......lol

My turbo sampan FEELS more responsive than the cruise ship. Cause damn loud and the gearshift is slow and when it engages you feel a kick. Haha I still have more fun in the sampan. Cause can drive a slow car fast.

Why only 7 sec?

Anyway its a good car overall.Just that it compete in a small market segment.
I think the X50 should make more sense in MY market.

Cause me and my friend were drivers to Genting fetching friends. Stopped to unload some luggage from my car to his, so I got off and jump in his car.

Oh I felt the leather seat was quite quality too. As in the feel and cushion support.
